Permanent Artwork, Art on the Great Victorian Rail Trail
This artwork is located on the Great Victorian Rail Trail, close to Trawool Estate, Mitchell Shire

Traces explores the forms of native plants, flora, and the environmental impact on this land.
Inspired by the impression of natural elements and local plants, the work responds to the simple, organic shape of a seed as the key, to reveal the idea of growing and transition.
The multiple forms and meanings of plants are essential in the work, which reflects the precious source of lifecycle in nature, as well as transformation through time and season.
